I'm a drummer, but one 'garage band' I was in (a LONG time ago) my friend played a three-pick-up Gibson Les Paul, and then fed it through a flanger.  Now, that was a "bitchen" sound! (as we used to say in the 70s).  Nowadays, I am partial to Ibanez electric guitars, as played by Vai, Satriani, Petrucci, and (no doubt) so many others....

I've got to say ESP has the most guitar for the money, but if moneys not an option get a Warrior.

I love my Fender Jazz Bass, but I really, REALLY want a Ric 4003.  Too bad I haven't got the cash...

As far as 6-strings go, I love the look and sound of a Les Paul.

    Long live Fender Jazz Basses!! And I am in the same situation, I want a Ric but I don't have money. But for 6-strings, we differ. I especially like Fender Stratocastors.

This has to be one of the finest guitars ever built. The "Double Rainbow" built for John McLaughlin by Rex Bogue.

I have 3 favourite guitars:

The Maton Mastersound MS2000 Deluxe, the Rickenbacker R-360 and the Gibson SG 61' Reissue.

I used to think I could only get the sound I like with Gibson-style guitars (humbuckers and glued necks) but, since getting a halfway decent amp (Marshall Valvestate 100w), I've come to appreciate Fenders more. The single coil sound has more musicality and definition to my ears.
 
Strats and teles would be the greatest guitars ever made apart from the positioning of the volume control on strats (I always accidentally turn the volume down as I play) and the edges of the bridge plate on vintage teles (I've taken the skin off my knuckles more than once).

John did allow me to borrow his SG double neck though for a jam with Carlos Santana:

^Am I the only one who thinks the doubleneck SG is far better looking than McLaughlin's custom built doubleneck?

Ouch




Bad taste rules the Earth... (the custom built one is far too overloaded with kitsch details, while the Gibson is simple and stylish in comparison)

The SG double neck is one of the most beautiful guitars ever made, IMO

But do you agree that it is far more stylish than McLaughlin's custom built doubleneck?

I think it's a better looking guitar, it that makes a difference; as with many things, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

There's always the consideration, too, that you have to bear in mind I am always correct, and therefore nobody else's opinion has any real weight.

This we know...
